Tottenham are still seeking replacements for James Maddison and Dejan Kulusevski, who are both out with long-term injuries.
The club failed to secure Eberechi Eze after the Englishman joined rivals Arsenal.
Thomas Frank has enjoyed a nice start to his Tottenham managerial career, and now the manager is looking to secure one of Chelsea's top targets, Xavi Simons.
What is the latest update on Xavi Simons?
According to Sky Sports, Xavi Simons is in London to discuss his future, with Tottenham joining the race for his signature.
Sky's Florian Plettenberg also exclusively reported that Tottenham have submitted an offer for Simons, with the bid close to RB Leipzig's asking price of £60m, or €70m.

Chelsea have yet to submit an official bid.
Simons wants to leave Leipzig, and the Dutch attacker fits the profile that Tottenham want as their replacement for Maddison.
In 25 Bundesliga appearances last season, Simons scored 10 goals and had seven assists for Leipzig.
Simons can play as an attacking midfielder or winger, making him a dynamic option for whichever club lands him.
